1 Wakorintho 15
1 Sasa ninawakumbusha, akina kaka na akina dada, juu ya injili niliyowahubiria, ambayo mliipokea na kusimama kwayo.
he bhrAtaraH, yaH susaMvAdo mayA yuShmatsamIpe nivedito yUya ncha yaM gR^ihItavanta Ashritavantashcha taM puna ryuShmAn vij nApayAmi|
2 Ni katika injili hii mmeokolewa, kama mkilishika imara neno nililowahubiri ninyi, isipokuwa mliamini bure.
yuShmAkaM vishvAso yadi vitatho na bhavet tarhi susaMvAdayuktAni mama vAkyAni smaratAM yuShmAkaM tena susaMvAdena paritrANaM jAyate|
3 Kama kwanza nilivyo ipokea kwa umuhimu niliileta kwenu kama ilivyo: kwamba kutokana na maandiko, Kristo alikufa kwa ajili ya dhambi zetu,
yato. ahaM yad yat j nApitastadanusArAt yuShmAsu mukhyAM yAM shikShAM samArpayaM seyaM, shAstrAnusArAt khrIShTo. asmAkaM pApamochanArthaM prANAn tyaktavAn,
4 kutokana na maandiko alizikwa, na kwamba alifufuka siku ya tatu.

5 Na kwamba alimtokea Kefa, kisha kwa wale kumi na wawili.
sa chAgre kaiphai tataH paraM dvAdashashiShyebhyo darshanaM dattavAn|
6 Kisha aliwatokea kwa wakati mmoja akina kaka na akina dada zaidi ya mia tano. Wengi wao bado wako hai, lakini baadhi yao wamelala usingizi.

7 Kisha alimtokea Yakobo, kisha mitume wote.

8 Mwisho wa yote, alinitokea mimi, kama vile kwa mtoto aliye zaliwa katika wakati usio sahihi.
sarvvasheShe. akAlajAtatulyo yo. ahaM, so. ahamapi tasya darshanaM prAptavAn|
9 Kwa kuwa mimi ni mdogo kati ya mitume. Sistahili kuitwa mtume, kwa sababu nililitesa kanisa la Mungu.
Ishvarasya samitiM prati daurAtmyAcharaNAd ahaM preritanAma dharttum ayogyastasmAt preritAnAM madhye kShudratamashchAsmi|
10 Lakini kwa neema ya Mungu nipo kama nilivyo, na neema yake kwangu haikuwa bure. Badala yake, nilifanya bidii kuliko wote. Lakini haikuwa mimi, bali neema ya Mungu iliyo ndani yangu.

11 Kwa hiyo kama ni mimi au wao, tuna hubiri hivyo na tunaamini hivyo.
ataeva mayA bhavet tai rvA bhavet asmAbhistAdR^ishI vArttA ghoShyate saiva cha yuShmAbhi rvishvAsena gR^ihItA|
12 Sasa kama Kristo alihubiriwa kama aliyefufuka kwa wafu, iweje baadhi yenu mseme hakuna ufufuo wa wafu?

13 Lakini kama hakuna ufufuo wa wafu, basi hata Kristo pia hakufufuka.

14 Na kama Kristo hakufufuka, hivyo mahubiri yetu ni bure, na imani yenu ni bure.
khrIShTashcha yadyanutthApitaH syAt tarhyasmAkaM ghoShaNaM vitathaM yuShmAkaM vishvAso. api vitathaH|
15 Na tumepatikana kuwa mashahidi wa uongo kumuhusu Mungu, kwa sababu tulimshushuhudia Mungu kinyume, kusema alimfufua Kristo, wakati hakumfufua.
vaya ncheshvarasya mR^iShAsAkShiNo bhavAmaH, yataH khrIShTa stenotthApitaH iti sAkShyam asmAbhirIshvaramadhi dattaM kintu mR^itAnAmutthiti ryadi na bhavet tarhi sa tena notthApitaH|
16 Kama ikiwa wafu hawafufuliwi, Yesu pia hakufufuliwa.
yato mR^itAnAmutthiti ryati na bhavet tarhi khrIShTo. apyutthApitatvaM na gataH|
17 Na kama Kristo hakufufuliwa, imani yenu ni bure na bado mko kwenye dhambi zenu.
khrIShTasya yadyanutthApitaH syAt tarhi yuShmAkaM vishvAso vitathaH, yUyam adyApi svapApeShu magnAstiShThatha|
18 Hivyo hata wale waliokufa katika Kristo pia wameangamia.
aparaM khrIShTAshritA ye mAnavA mahAnidrAM gatAste. api nAshaM gatAH|
19 Ikiwa kwa maisha haya peke yake tunaujasiri kwa wakati ujao ndani ya Kristo, watu wote, sisi niwakuhurumiwa zaidi ya watu wote.
khrIShTo yadi kevalamihaloke. asmAkaM pratyAshAbhUmiH syAt tarhi sarvvamartyebhyo vayameva durbhAgyAH|
20 Lakini sasa Kristo amefufuka kutoka kwa wafu, matunda ya kwanza ya wale waliokufa.
idAnIM khrIShTo mR^ityudashAta utthApito mahAnidrAgatAnAM madhye prathamaphalasvarUpo jAtashcha|
21 Kwa kuwa kifo kilikuja kupitia mwanadamu, pia kupitia mwanadamu ufufuo wa wafu.
yato yadvat mAnuShadvArA mR^ityuH prAdurbhUtastadvat mAnuShadvArA mR^itAnAM punarutthitirapi pradurbhUtA|
22 Kwa kuwa kama katika Adam wote wanakufa, hivyo pia katika Kristo wote watafanywa hai.
AdamA yathA sarvve maraNAdhInA jAtAstathA khrIShTena sarvve jIvayiShyante|
23 Lakini kila moja katika mpango wake: Kristo, matunda ya kwanza, na kisha wale walio wa Kristo watafanywa hai wakati wa kuja kwake.
kintvekaikena janena nije nije paryyAya utthAtavyaM prathamataH prathamajAtaphalasvarUpena khrIShTena, dvitIyatastasyAgamanasamaye khrIShTasya lokaiH|
24 Ndipo utakuwa mwisho, pale Kristo atakapo kabidhi ufalme kwa Mungu Baba. Hii ni pale atakapo komesha utawala wote na mamlaka yote na nguvu.
tataH param anto bhaviShyati tadAnIM sa sarvvaM shAsanam adhipatitvaM parAkrama ncha luptvA svapitarIshvare rAjatvaM samarpayiShyati|
25 Kwa kuwa lazima atawale mpaka atakapoweka maadui zake wote chini ya nyayo zake.
yataH khrIShTasya ripavaH sarvve yAvat tena svapAdayoradho na nipAtayiShyante tAvat tenaiva rAjatvaM karttavyaM|
26 Adui wa mwisho kuharibiwa ni kifo.
tena vijetavyo yaH sheSharipuH sa mR^ityureva|
27 Kwa kuwa “ameweka kila kitu chini ya nyayo zake.” Lakini inaposema “ameweka kila kitu,” ni wazi kwamba hii haihusishi wale walioweka kila kitu chini yake mwenyewe.

28 Wakati vitu vyote vimewekwa chini yake, kisha Mwana mwenyewe atawekwa chini kwake Yeye ambaye aliviweka vitu vyote chini yake. Hii itatokea ili kwamba Mungu Baba awe yote katika vyote.

29 Au pia watafanya nini wale waliobatizwa kwa ajili ya wafu? Kama wafu hawafufuliwi kabisa, kwa nini tena wanabatizwa kwa ajili yao?

30 Na kwa nini tuko katika hatari kila saa?

31 Kaka na dada zangu, kupitia kujisifu kwangu katika ninyi, ambayo ninayo katika Kristo Yesu Bwana wetu, natangaza hivi: nakufa kila siku.

32 Inanifaidia nini, katika mtazamo wa wanadamu, kama nilipigana na wanyama wakali huko Efeso, kama wafu hawafufuliwi? “Acha basi tule na kunywa, kwa kuwa kesho tunakufa.”

33 Msidanganywe: “Makundi mabaya huharibu tabia njema.

34 “Muwe na kiasi! muishi katika haki! msiendelee kutenda dhambi. Kwa kuwa baadhi yenu hamna maarifa ya Mungu. Nasema hivi kwa aibu yenu.

35 Lakini mtu mwingine atasema, “Jinsi gani wafu wanafufuliwa? Nao watakuja na aina gani ya mwili?”
aparaM mR^italokAH katham utthAsyanti? kIdR^ishaM vA sharIraM labdhvA punareShyantIti vAkyaM kashchit prakShyati|
36 Wewe ni mjinga sana! Kile ulichopanda hakiwezi kuanza kukua isipokuwa kimekufa.
he aj na tvayA yad bIjam upyate tad yadi na mriyeta tarhi na jIvayiShyate|
37 Na kile unachopanda sio mwili ambao utakuwa, bali ni mbegu iliyochipua. Inaweza kuwa ngano au kitu kingine.

38 Lakini Mungu ataipa mwili kama apendavyo, na katika kila mbengu mwili wake mwenyewe.
IshvareNeva yathAbhilAShaM tasmai mUrtti rdIyate, ekaikasmai bIjAya svA svA mUrttireva dIyate|
39 Miili yote haifanani. Isipokuwa, kuna mwili mmoja wa wanadamu, na mwili mwingine wa wanyama, na wili mwingine wa ndege, na mwingine kwa ajili ya samaki.
sarvvANi palalAni naikavidhAni santi, manuShyapashupakShimatsyAdInAM bhinnarUpANi palalAni santi|
40 Pia kuna miili ya mbinguni na miili ya duniani. Lakini utukufu wa miili ya mbinguni ni aina moja na utukufu wa duniani ni mwingine.
aparaM svargIyA mUrttayaH pArthivA mUrttayashcha vidyante kintu svargIyAnAm ekarUpaM tejaH pArthivAnA ncha tadanyarUpaM tejo. asti|
41 Kuna utukufu mmoja wa jua, na utukufu mwingine wa mwezi, na utukufu mwingine wa nyota. Kwa kuwa nyota moja inatofautiana na nyota nyingine katika utukufu.
sUryyasya teja ekavidhaM chandrasya tejastadanyavidhaM tArANA ncha tejo. anyavidhaM, tArANAM madhye. api tejasastAratamyaM vidyate|
42 Hivyo ndivyo ulivyo pia ufufuo wa wafu. Kinacho pandwa kinaharibika, na kinacho ota hakiharibiki.
tatra likhitamAste yathA, ‘AdipuruSha Adam jIvatprANI babhUva, ` kintvantima Adam (khrIShTo) jIvanadAyaka AtmA babhUva|
43 Kimepandwa katika matumizi ya kawaida, kinaoteshwa katika utukufu. Kimepandwa katika udhaifu, kinaoteshwa katika nguvu.
yad upyate tat tuchChaM yachchotthAsyati tad gauravAnvitaM; yad upyate tannirbbalaM yachchotthAsyati tat shaktiyuktaM|
44 Kimepandwa katika mwili wa asili, kinaoteshwa katika mwili wa kiroho. Kama kuna mwili wa asili, kuna mwili wa kiroho pia.

45 Hivyo pia imeandikwa, “Mtu wa kwanza Adamu alifanyika roho inayo ishi.” Adamu wa mwisho alifanyika roho itoayo uhai.
tatra likhitamAste yathA, AdipuruSha Adam jIvatprANI babhUva, kintvantima Adam (khrIShTo) jIvanadAyaka AtmA babhUva|
46 Lakini wa kiroho hakuja kwanza bali wa asili, na kisha wa kiroho.

47 Mtu wa kwanza ni wa dunia, alitengenezwa kwa mavumbi. Mtu wa pili anatoka mbinguni.

48 Kama vile yule aliyetengenezwa kwa mavumbi, hivyo pia wale waliotengenezwa kwa mavumbi. Kama vile mtu wa mbinguni alivyo, hivyo pia wale wa mbinguni.

49 Kama ambavyo tumebeba mfano wa mtu wa mavumbi, tutabeba pia mfano wa mtu wa mbinguni.

50 Sasa nawaambia, kaka na dada zangu, kwamba mwili na damu haviwezi kuurithi ufalme wa Mungu. Wala wakuharibika kurithi wakutoharibika.

51 Tazama! Nawaambia ninyi siri ya kweli: Hatutakufa wote, bali wote tutabadilishwa.
pashyatAhaM yuShmabhyaM nigUDhAM kathAM nivedayAmi|
52 Tutabadilishwa katika wakati, katika kufumba na kufumbua kwa jicho, katika tarumbeta ya mwisho. Kwa kuwa tarumbeta italia, na wafu watafufuliwa na hali ya kutoharibika, na tutabadilishwa.

53 Kwani huu wa kuharibika lazima uvae wa kutoharibika, na huu wa kufa lazima uvae wa kutokufa.

54 Lakini wakati huu wa kuharibika ukivikwa wa kutokuharibika, na huu wa kufa ukivaa wa kutokufa, ndipo utakuja msemo ambao umeandikwa, “Kifo kimemezwa katika ushindi.”

58 Kwa hiyo, wapendwa kaka na dada zangu, iweni imara na msitikisike. Daima itendeni kazi ya Bwana, kwa sababu mnajua kuwa kazi yenu katika Bwana siyo bure.
